EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the grandeur of the Savoy Palace, circa 1380. Once considered one of the most magnificent residences owned by a nobleman in London, it tragically met its demise during the Peasants Revolt of 1381. Wenceslas Hollar's exquisite engraving from 1650 allows us to envision this lost architectural gem that once graced the banks of the Thames. As we gaze upon this historical image, we are reminded that what stands today on this site is not only a testament to resilience but also a symbol of cultural significance. The Savoy Theatre and The Savoy Hotel now occupy this hallowed ground, offering entertainment and luxury to visitors from around the world. The photograph captures an early date scene along the river Thames, with rowing boats gracefully gliding through its waters. It serves as a poignant reminder that even though time has passed and landscapes have changed, there remains an enduring connection between past and present. Through this evocative image brought to us by Hulton Archive/Getty Images, we are transported back centuries ago when nobility resided within these walls. It invites contemplation on how history shapes our surroundings and how remnants of greatness can still be found amidst modernity.
